Yes she is not pretty but all the bits that need to be spot on are. She gets used in all weathers, washed about twice a year but all the lights are cleaned regularly. 16/48 gearing at the moment give 55mpg and adequate acceleration , had 15/44 before and may go to 16/46 or 16/45 next which will give 60mpg plus.

*if i'm honest my CB500, which is my 'all year commute' bike, looks far worse...
Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back it said, "Wish you were here."
